'A valuable feature is offered in the-advantage that those objects appear enlarged by the use ofa magnify-ingleiis' Another and additional advantage is. that the angle ofposition of the lens to the objects can be changed by raising or lowering it, which by the law of optic tends to adjust it to the sight of the observer if within the range of the focus of the lens.
